Pangbai glanced at his friend list and found that there were quite a few friends in their status, all of which were "playing "Terraria". It seems that he was not the only one who was captured by the charm of this game.

"Terraria is so fun, and the sales should be very good. I hope that the Terracotta Warriors Entertainment, the company, can make more money and make more good games."

With such expectations, Pangbai went to bed.

The next day, he went to work in the company with his eyes that were congested because he had only slept for less than four hours.

Seeing his decadent look on his face, his colleagues asked one after another.

"What's wrong, Fat White? Did you successfully get out of your home on Christmas Eve and didn't sleep well all night?"

"I think it's because I'm single again and I feel heartbroken. I'm going to vent my anger and get hurt."

"Go and go, I played Terraria yesterday and just slept a little late, a group of guys who couldn't speak." Fat Bai waved his hand and sent away his colleague who was full of dirty words.

But soon, he couldn't help asking: "Have you bought the steam Christmas special offer that started this morning?"

This topic immediately attracted heated discussions from everyone.

"I've chopped it up, of course I've chopped it up. I was originally a Thousand-Handed Tathagata, but now there are only two-hand ones left. Do you think I've chopped it up?"

"This time, the Christmas special discount was so big, I gritted my teeth and spent all the game budget for the Spring Festival in advance."

"Yes, I really didn't expect that this Christmas, major manufacturers seemed to have taken medicine, and the discounts were unprecedented. If you don't buy them, would you be worthy of G's fat smile?"

Fat Bai heard that his colleagues donated generously last night to contribute to G Fat's career and continued to ask: "Then have anyone bought Terraria? I tell you, this game is really great!"

However, this time, not many people gave affirmative answers.

"I didn't buy it. "Terraria" is a newly launched, right? It's a second-tier game with a price similar to those discounted 3A masterpieces, and the cost-effectiveness is too low."

"I originally planned to start the sale of Terraria, but the price is really not an advantage. Moreover, I have too many games I have not played before, so I can only put them on first."

In the studio, not everyone is a loyal fan of Terracotta Warriors and the Qin and Han dynasties. They are willing to buy "Terraria" at the first time, no matter what the price they pay.

"A considerable number of my steam friends met when I played "The Story of the Oriental Fantasy Country". Like me, they are all loyal fans of Terracotta Warriors Entertainment, so they will buy "Terraria" as soon as possible. It seems that I am too optimistic about the sales of "Terraria". Due to the impact of Christmas special offers, many floating consumer groups have changed or postponed their plans to buy "Terraria"..." Fat Bai thought to himself.

When Pangbai was working in the morning, he was a little restless. He took time to pay attention to various social networks from time to time, check out the news about "Terraria" and the players' thoughts after playing.

Although many players like him bought "Terraria" as soon as possible, the discussion was not as hot as expected.

You know, this is a work that was fully promoted before it was released and won the TGA "Most Expected Game" award!

After lunch, I took advantage of the lunch break and browsed major game websites at home and abroad.

The scores given by various game media to "Terraria" are fair. If converted into tens, they are basically above nine points. However, on the Metacritic website, the user score of "Terraria" is only fifty-six.

Metacritic is a website that collects movies, TV shows, music, and game reviews. It has a great influence around the world, especially in Europe and the United States.

The ratings of this website are divided into two parts: media ratings and user ratings.

The media rating of "Terraria" on Metacritic is quite good, with 92 points. However, the user rating shows a huge gap.

"What's going on?" Pangbai browsed the user comments and comments of "Terraria". He found that the ratings of this game are now extremely polarized, with the largest number of users who scored the highest score of 100 and those who scored the lowest score of 1.

Moreover, most of the comments made by users who give 1 point are the same, and they are copied and pasted at first glance. In addition, the username is not at all thoughtful, and they are just random letters.

Obviously, "Terraria" was scored maliciously.

As a fan of Terracotta Warriors Entertainment, Pangbai was naturally very angry at this malicious competition against "Terraria". However, as a media staff member - well, the self-media is also a media staff member, and there is nothing wrong with him. He smelled the smell of big news.

Pangbai quickly told his boss Stan about his discovery.

"Due to the influence of Steam Christmas promotion, the sales volume of the digital version may not meet expectations. At the same time, malicious scoring of this game has occurred on major rating websites..."

After listening to Pang Bai's return, Stan recorded the information he has collected so far, and then said: "We must continue to follow up on this matter. This week's express report is a big deal..."

Fat Bai nodded and returned to his seat.

When I got off work in the afternoon, the scores of "Terraria" on major websites with user rating mechanisms fell terriblely, which was in sharp contrast with the high media scores.

At this point in time, some unknown pheasant game media and some social network accounts began to publish negative news about "Terraria".

"Terraria's sales are much lower than expected. The fundamental reason is that the quality of the game has disappointed players."

"Terraria, which has received good reviews in major game media, has not been recognized by the majority of players."

"The media ratings and player ratings of "Terraria" are so polarized, what is hidden behind it?"

"From "Terraria, the credibility of the game media disappears..."

In addition to exaggerating the poor sales of "Terraria" and the low game quality, these articles pointed the finger at well-known game media such as IGN and gamespot, Japan's Famitong and China's game starry sky, and were also not spared and were shot.

In fact, these media are really wronged this time.

Although it is not uncommon to score money in the critics and is often criticized by players. However, this time, major game media did not get a penny from Terracotta Warriors Entertainment.
